Abstract EN
The current study looks at postmodernism in Alice Munro's short stories.
it is a technical and thematic investigation.
first, a description of women's status, role, and sense of self is given.
the process of resisting extreme patriarchy, which sees women oppressed and discriminated against in all communities, is next covered.
postmodernism is then identified in the study.
one of the most uncommon examples of gender studies portrayal in literature, according to this study, is Munro.
the topic of gender equality is frequently brought up in Munro's writing.
she is prepared to speak out against American imperialism and social and religious restrictions in public or in private.
Canadians and oppressed women are commonly contrasted in her artwork.
as can be seen, women must be free from social and patriarchal constraints.
Munro's short stories challenge accepted norms by allowing her to disfigure patriarchy and debase the West.
